[Verse 1]
Come and watch a curtain rise
Just in time for us to hide
Do you wanna see my ghost
Picking up the old boy's slack
Only can we go so far
Take a bow and raise a glass
Oh!
[Hook]
Hold it right there
Do you want to keep me on the line?
Hold it right there
Caught the operator
[Verse 2]
Come and watch the old paint dry
Wait until the tide comes higher
We'll be playing in an old man's war
Picking flowers off the corner store
Oh!
[Hook x2]
[Outro]
Only this road lasts as long
'Till you find you're on the run
Only this road lasts as long
'Till you find you're the only one
Come and watch a curtain rise
Just in time for us to hide
Do you wanna see my ghost
Picking up the old boy's slack
Only can we go so far
Take a bow and raise a glass
Oh!
[Hook]
Hold it right there
Do you want to keep me on the line?
Hold it right there
Caught the operator
[Verse 2]
Come and watch the old paint dry
Wait until the tide comes higher
We'll be playing in an old man's war
Picking flowers off the corner store
Oh!
[Hook x2]
[Outro]
Only this road lasts as long
'Till you find you're on the run
Only this road lasts as long
'Till you find you're the only one
